Hi,
This name "u-boot-rockchip.bin"is in use in user space scripts and shows
up in examples on the web. No desire for yet another naming variant.
What you change must give exact the same result as we had in the
existing situation.
"git am <patch>" gives these warnings:
warning: 3 lines add whitespace errors.
Resulting dtsi is full of TAB and alignment issues.
Use an editor with TAB highlighter.
There's a trend to solve everything in python.
Don't have knowledge about python, but there's a 3rd image format for
NAND [1]. Could someone advise how to fit the extra XXX padding option
in the mkimage.py file? (Simon ?)
Could someone from Rockchip give info on whether the SD or SPI image
format has similarity to the NAND image format to reuse code? (Kever ?)
Missing are u-boot documents on Rockchip file formats itself other then
reading the /tools/rkxxx.c code.
Currently there's a small section about rkimage, rksd and rkspi in
README.rockchip. Move that to rockchip.rst as well when busy with image
formats in this serie?
